It’s just before my time but I seem to recall that the world was moving in a dystopian fashion even then which was what this movie was calling out. Counter culture, hippies, Vietnam war protests, students back talking their teachers even then.
It never went away.
Again, though, this is part of the CCPs globalist grab to extend communism everywhere. Covid was the trial run.

This and Burgess’ 1985 (the novella part) are almost prophetic about England.

Saw the movie in 1971. I thought our World would never become like that. I think I was wrong. Now we care more about perps than victims.

Kubrick and Burgess are owed incredible policy consultants fees in today’s governments.

I found it interesting that the kids were using Russian slang words like "horrorshow" (хорошо) for "good," "droog" (друг) for "friend," and "starry loodies" (старыe люди) for "old people." This was probably because they were required to learn it in school, since they lived in a Communist country and Russian is the lingua franca of Communism. During the Cold War, students in Hungary, East Germany and other members of the East Bloc were required to study Russian in school.

Read some of John Brunner’s work. Dystopian and prophetic also.
Although he was wrong on the overpopulation theme, he was spot on in some other areas. Probably the most so was “The Shockwave Rider” on computer viruses and electronic surveilance of the people.
